    Summary

    Kishibe spoke his next words with all the bluntness of a mallet hammering a point in without room for argument. “Letting someone into your life is to give them a key inside your heart. That also means allowing them to let themselves out when it’s no longer place they feel welcome in.”

    “Suppose I just keep the key then," Makima suggested.

    “Then you’d be no different from a prison.”

    Makima stared at the back of Kishibe’s head and imagined pointing a finger and cocking back a thumb. Bang. Skull shards and brains splattered on the wall, the cleaners tutting to themselves as they thought of all the work ahead to get the blood out of the carpet, and bits of an eye and a nose swept into a dustpan and unceremoniously dumped into black plastic bags by hands in white gloves.

    Or Makima doesn't understand divorces and Kishibe goes shopping for new furniture.

    Summary

    Just a collection of Kobeni x Makima short stories. There'll be some sense of continuity and an ending, but it's mostly just for fun. Maybe some angst too-- it's an unpredictable world out there.

    Summary

    Kobeni Higashiyama was terrified of Ms. Makima. This statement should elicit a feeling much like the experience of a blue sky, or green grass. The warmth of a big, bright Sun, perhaps. That is to say, all of the constants in the world exactly as one would expect to find them. As Kobeni was terrified of most anyone, and most anyone with sense was terrified of Makima, this was, to reiterate, perfectly natural.

    Summary

    Makima opened her eyes.

    She in her bed in her apartment, surrounded by her dogs. There's nothing odd about this, except that she knows she's supposed to be dead.

    Her calendar says it's the day before she meets Denji.
